AN ACT CONCERNING DEFICIENCY APPROPRIATIONS FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING JUNE 30, 2025, AND COMPENSATION PAID TO INJURED EMPLOYEES AND THE PARENTS OF A DECEASED EMPLOYEE UNDER THE WORKERS' COMPENSATION ACT.
HB 6863 allocates additional state funds to cover unexpected costs for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025, and ensures compensation payments under Connecticut's Workers' Compensation Act for injured state employees or the parents of deceased employees. This procedural budget bill directly affects state employees and their families by securing funding for existing workers' compensation obligations. It does not create new policies but addresses financial gaps in the state budget and existing compensation requirements. The bill became Public Act 25-12 after signing by the governor on May 20, 2025.
